This Amendment No. 3 amends the Schedule 13D only with respect to the items listed below. Unless otherwise indicated, all capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.

Item 2. Identity and Background.

     Appendix A to the Schedule 13D is amended and restated in its entirety as attached hereto.

     (a-c) and (f). This Statement is being filed by EOP Partnership. The general partner of EOP Partnership is Equity Office Properties Trust, a Maryland real estate investment trust (the “Trust”). As the general partner of EOP Partnership, the Trust may be deemed the indirect beneficial owner of shares of Common Stock of the Issuer beneficially owned by EOP Partnership. Additional information concerning the Trust is set forth in Appendix A hereto.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

     Item 4 is hereby supplemented by adding the following paragraphs at the end thereof:

     On September 30, 2002, CT Trust redeemed in full EOP Partnership’s $20,086,000 liquidation amount of New Preferred Securities that were not convertible into Common Stock of the Issuer.

     Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement between the Issuer and each Investor, EOP Partnership exercised its “piggyback” registration rights with respect to the 1,424,474 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer into which the Convertible Amount of the New Preferred Securities is currently convertible, and the Issuer filed a registration statement with respect to such shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 7, 2003. Under the registration statement, EOP Partnership may sell any shares of Common Stock obtained by it upon conversion of the Convertible Amount of the New Preferred Securities from time to time by a variety of methods including (a) in privately negotiated transactions, (b) through broker-dealers, who may act as agents or principals, (c) in a block trade in which a broker-dealer will attempt to sell a block of shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction, (d) through one or more underwriters on a firm commitment or best-efforts basis, (e) directly to one or more purchasers, (f) through agents, (g) in securities exchange or quotation system sales that comply with the rules of the exchange or quotation system, (h) through the writing of options relating to such shares or (i) any combination of the above. To date, no shares have been sold by EOP Partnership pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement.

     On April 27, 2004, the Issuer agreed to provide to EOP Partnership all of the rights that Stichting Pensioenfonds ABP (“ABP”) has under that certain registration rights agreement, dated as of February 7, 2003, by and between the Issuer and ABP (the “ABP Registration Rights Agreement”), as a “Holder” as defined therein. As a result, the Issuer has agreed to maintain the effectiveness of, and EOP Partnership’s ability to use, the registration statement filed pursuant to the ABP Registration Rights Agreement, subject to all the terms and conditions of, and EOP Partnership’s compliance with all the obligations of a Holder under, the ABP Registration Rights Agreement.

     In exchange for the Issuer’s agreement to provide to EOP Partnership the foregoing registration rights under the ABP Registration Rights Agreement, EOP Partnership, effective April 27, 2004, permanently and irrevocably waived its rights under and released the Issuer from all obligations and liabilities existing and/or arising, directly or indirectly, out of Section 5.2(a) of the Modification Agreement, which provides that the number of seats on the board of directors of the Issuer would not be decreased without the prior written consent of EOP Partnership.

     On April 27, 2004, pursuant to Sections 5.2(a) and 6.2 of the Modification Agreement, the Issuer provided written notice that, effective upon the conclusion of the Issuer’s 2004 annual meeting of shareholders scheduled for June 17, 2004, the Issuer intends to reduce the number of directors comprising its board of directors from eleven to nine.

     EOP Partnership acquired the New Preferred Securities, any Convertible Debentures issued with respect thereto, and any Common Stock acquired upon the conversion of Convertible Debentures and the Convertible Amount of New Preferred Securities, as an investment. EOP Partnership intends to continue to review its investment in the New Preferred Securities and, from time to time depending upon certain factors, may determine to acquire through conversion of the New Preferred Securities, open market purchases or

otherwise, Common Stock of the Issuer, or may determine to sell the New Preferred Securities or Common Stock. In that regard and as noted above, EOP Partnership exercised its “piggyback” registration rights with respect to the 1,424,474 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer into which the Convertible Amount of the New Preferred Securities is currently convertible, and the Issuer filed a registration statement with respect to such shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 7, 2003.

     (a) –(c), (e) and (f) Except as disclosed herein, neither EOP Partnership nor the Trust, and to the best knowledge of EOP Partnership and the Trust none of the persons listed in Appendix A hereto, has any plans or proposals of the types referred to in clauses (a) through (j), but excluding (d) as discussed below, of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

     (d) Samuel Zell, Chairman of the Board and a trustee of the Trust, serves as Chairman of the Board of the Issuer. Thomas Dobrowski, a trustee of the Trust, also serves of the Board of Directors of the Issuer. Sheli Rosenberg, another trustee of the Trust, resigned as a member of the Board of Directors of the Issuer effective as of April, 2004.

     (a) and (b) As of the date hereof, EOP Partnership beneficially owns 1,424,474 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer, which EOP Partnership currently has the right to acquire upon conversion of the New Preferred Securities held by it. Such shares represent approximately 15.2% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer after giving effect to the conversion of the New Preferred Securities held by EOP Partnership.

     On April 15, 2004, Ms. Rosenberg acquired 244 dividend equivalent shares of Common Stock.

     (d) No person other than EOP Partnership has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Common Stock beneficially owed by EOP Partnership.
